III
7 Golden Tate III cards in Dad’s binder from 6 sets: 2025 Panini Prizm, 2025 Panini Donruss, 2025 Panini Donruss Optic, 2025 Panini Mosaic, 2025 Panini Score and 2020 Panini Donruss.

GOLDEN TATE III CARDS IN THE BINDER
Base, parallels, numbered, autos: every Golden Tate III card Dad’s willing to part with.


Five 2025 base cards of a guy whose last Detroit season was 2018, because apparently the card companies need to keep churning out Lions-era Tates a decade later. At least the Donruss Optic Freedom parallel breaks the monotony of standard bases, though one wonders if anyone noticed these were still in production runs seven years after he left town. The single 2020 Donruss feels like an afterthought.
FROM THE BACKS OF OUR CARDS
“Tate's first name might be Golden but he looked snazzy in silver after joining the Lions in 2014.”
2025 Panini Prizm #139
ABOUT GOLDEN TATE III
Golden Tate III played college football for Notre Dame, earning unanimous All-American honors and winning the Fred Biletnikoff Award in 2009. He was selected by the Seattle Seahawks in the second round of the 2010 NFL draft and won a Super Bowl with the Seahawks in 2013. On March 12, 2014, Tate signed a five-year, $31 million contract with the Detroit Lions, where he earned Pro Bowl honors in 2014 with 99 catches for 1,331 yards and four touchdowns. He'll leave seventh in team history in receiving yards (4,741), fifth in receptions (416) and 15th in receiving touchdowns (22).
This collection spans Detroit Lions cards from both 2020 and 2025 releases, featuring five base and parallel issues from the 2025 season across Mosaic, Donruss Optic, Prizm, Score, and Donruss products. The lone 2020 Donruss base card provides an earlier snapshot from his time with the Giants. The 2025 Donruss Optic Freedom parallel adds the only non-base finish to an otherwise straightforward selection of standard issue cards.
